Annotated record of the detailed examination of Mn deposits from DSDP Site 39, Leg 5 (Cores 5-39-1, 5-39-2)

Site 39 was located in the region between the Pioneer and Murray Fracture Zones, with the objective of recovering a continuous sediment core for paleontologic and stratigraphic study of the longitudinal variations in sediment components in the eastern Pacific. This site was selected, together with the adjacent ones in the north-south line along 140°W, to provide information on the geologic history of the North Pacific gyral, insofar as this might be recorded in the sediments.

Annotated record of the detailed examination of Mn deposits from DSDP Site 37, Leg 5 (Cores 5-37-1, 5-37-2)

The JOIDES Pacific Advisory Panel proposed Site 37 to meet two principal objectives: to determine the significance of the magnetic anomaly pattern, and the longitudinal profile of the sediment sequence in the eastern Pacific. Site 37 was to be located on the same magnetic anomaly as was Site 33 (#10, 32 million years age), for comparison across the intervening Mendocino Fracture Zone. As basement had not been reached at Site 33, this objective could not be met specifically. However, sediment comparison across the fracture zone was possible.

High performance cobalt-free Cu<sub>1.4sub>Mn<sub>1.6sub>O<sub>4sub> spinel oxide as an intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell cathode

<p>In this work Cu<sub>1.4sub>Mn<sub>1.6sub>O<sub>4sub> (CMO) spinel oxide is prepared and evaluated as a novel cobalt-free cathode for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs). Single phase CMO powder with cubic structure is identified using XRD. XPS results confirm that mixed Cu<sup>+sup>/Cu<sup>2+sup> and Mn<sup>3+sup>/Mn<sup>4+sup> couples exist in the CMO sample, and a maximum conductivity of 78 S cm<sup>−1sup> is achieved at 800 °C. Meanwhile, CMO oxide shows good thermal and chemical compatibility with a 10 mol% Sc<sub>2sub>O<sub>3sub> stabilized ZrO<sub>2sub> (ScSZ) electrolyte material. Impedance spectroscopy measurements reveals that CMO exhibits a low polarization resistance of 0.143 Ω cm<sup>2sup> at 800 °C. Furthermore, a Ni-ScSZ/ScSZ/CMO single cell demonstrates a maximum power density of 1076 mW cm<sup>−2sup> at 800 °C under H<sub>2sub> (3% H<sub>2sub>O) as the fuel and ambient air as the oxidant. These results indicate that Cu<sub>1.4sub>Mn<sub>1.6sub>O<sub>4sub> is a superior and promising cathode material for IT-SOFCs.p>

Relatório da prática de ensino supervisionada realizado no agrupamento de escolas n.º 4 de Évora - EB 2,3 Conde de Vilalva e Escola Secundária André de Gouveia em ensino de educação física nos ensinos básico e secundário

A Prática de Ensino Supervisionada desenvolveu-se no Agrupamento de Escolas nº 4 de Évora- EB 2,3 Conde Vilalva e na Escola Secundária André de Gouveia, com as turmas do 8º ano e 12° ano respectivamente. Para elucidar o trabalho realizado ao longo do ano desenvolvi o presente relatório onde abordei a preparação cientifica, pedagógica e didáctica que permitiu um conhecimento dos alunos e do currículo; a Planificação e condução das aulas e respectiva avaliação que faz referencia ao planeamento por etapas e às vantagens do mesmo e ainda à forma como foram leccionadas as aulas; uma análise da prática de ensino; a participação na escola e as actividades desenvolvidas nas mesmas; e o desenvolvimento profissional com referências ás competências que o professor deve assumir dentro da comunidade escolar. Com os parâmetros acima referidos demonstra-se a grande importância que o estágio teve na aquisição das competências essenciais inerentes à docência. ABSTRACT: Supervised Teaching Practice was developed in School Cluster nº 4 of Évora­ Elementary School Conde Vilalva and in Secondary School André de Gouveia, with classes of 8th and 12th grade, respectively. To elucidate the work I done over this school year, I developed this report which discussed the scientific, educational and teaching preparation, allowing an understanding of students and the curriculum; the planning and conduct of lessons and their assessment that refers to the planning stages, and to advantage of it and, on the other hand, the way that were taught lessons; an analysis of teaching practice; participation in school and activities carried therein; and professional development with reference to the competences that the teacher should take within the school community. With the above parameters is shown the importance of this stage in the acquisition of essential skills related to teaching.

Relatório da prática de ensino supervisionada no Agrupamento de Escolas n.º 4 de Évora - EB 2,3 Conde de Vilalva e Escola Secundária Gabriel

A presente dissertação é uma sinopse do trabalho desenvolvido no âmbito do estágio de Prática de Ensino Supervisionada em Educação Física. O estágio decorreu em duas escolas dos Ensinos Básico e Secundário. A dissertação encontra-se dividida por partes: preparação e planificação de aulas, conhecimento das turmas, condução das aulas, avaliação e processo reflexivo das várias etapas. Foram desenvolvidas actividades para as comunidades escolares de ambas as escolas e foi feita uma reflexão final do estágio que teve como objectivo analisar todos os procedimentos que foram desenvolvidos ao longo do ano lectivo. A passagem pelos quatro ciclos de ensino foi bastante produtiva para o enriquecimento do processo enquanto professor. As aulas seguiram o planeamento anual que estava delineado e foi esta ferramenta que possibilitou a existência de uma grande autonomia dos alunos, um maior controlo na prática pedagógica e a presença sistemática do jogo, trazendo uma motivação e empenhamento suplementar nas aulas e nas actividades desenvolvidas. ABSTRACT: The following dissertation is a synopsis of what was done at the scope of Supervised Practices for Physical Education beginning teachers. The traineeship took place in two schools from Primary to Secondary levels. The dissertation is divided into several parts: preparation and lessons planning, students' profile, lessons, evaluation and reflexive process on the different stages. lt was developed activities for the communities of the booth schools and was made a final reflection of the traineeship stage that have as a propose analyze all the procedures that was developed in all the academic year. The passage for the four cycles of school was very productive for the enrichment as a professor. The classes were follow as was expected and was that possibilities the existence of a great autonomy of the students, a bigger contrail in the pedagogy practice and systematic presence of the game that bring a motivation and supplementary interest in the classes and activities developed.
